hg_delta_editor: fix symlink prefix confusion - SubversionRepo.get_file() strips the symlink prefix - Enforce that hg_delta_editor symlink data always contains the prefix. The alternative was seducing and more consistent with hg content but it makes the code more complicated since svn:special can be set before or after the content is set, and we need it in apply_textdelta() This issue fixes jQuery repository conversion at r3674.

15 You need a recent Mercurial. At present, the required memctx and rebase code is in mercurial_ and crew_, but not crew-stable_ or mercurial-stable_. Install Mercurial from one of mercurial or crew if you have not already. Personally, I use crew_.

26 Before using hgsubversion, I *strongly* encourage you to run the automated tests. Just use nose_ if you have it (or ``easy_install nose`` if you want it), or use ``python tests/run.py`` to run the suite with the conventional test runner. Note that because I use nose, there's a lot of stdout spew in the tests right now. The important part is that all the tests pass.
